The World Series!

The charcoal got a bit wet in the rain so it took a little longer to fire up the grill today but, wait no more. The World Series is here!

It's the NY Yankees vs. the Philadelphia Phillies. Here are some things to chat about:

> These are two teams that can generate some serious offense. Sports Illustrated is referring to it as The Big Bash because of Phillies' Ryan Howard and the Yanks' Alex Rodriguez. Both can hit "taters" or "the long ball" = home runs.

> Talk about the importance of winning Game #1. This is a best of 7 series but in the last several years, whichever team won the first game won the series. So Game #1 could be VERY important.

> Ask who the unsung hero could be. There's often an unexpected player who steps up and comes through and turns the tide of the Series.

That's enough tasty treats for now. Until tomorrow, enjoy!
